Abstract

This dataset is part of an ongoing larger project that aims to build a comprehensive macrobenthic dataset from the Po Plain‒Adriatic Sea system by sampling both sedimentary successions and present-day depositional surfaces. During my Ph.D. research, I processed samples taken from the Mid Adriatic Deep (MAD) and near-MAD cored sedimentary succession in the central Adriatic, that contain marine lowstand deltaic and costal deposits from the last glacial time interval. Although an abundance of data has been gathered from the sedimentary succession of the Adriatic Sea, the dynamics of the macrobenthic community preserved there has been little investigated. The taxonomic and ecological information reported in the MAD dataset will represent a keystone for enhancing the knowledge of the molluscan fauna during the last glacial period.
